Establishing Credibility

I won’t lie. Establishing credibility is one of the hardest things to do online. How can you establish credibility when you don’t have any to begin with? Well, there are ways you can do this.

1. Create a Product and Give It Away – That’s right. This is the absolute best and easiest way to establish credibility. If you create your own product and give it away, you can do so with the condition that after using your product, if they find it useful, they give you a testimonial. This testimonial is the start of your credibility. The more testimonials you have, the more credibility you’ll acquire.

2. Offer A Guarantee – If you offer people a guarantee for your product it shows them that you stand behind your product and believe in it. Sometimes offering a guarantee can mean the difference between getting a sale and losing it.

3. Get BBB Approval – This may be one of the most important things that you can do. Simply submit your product or service to the BBB and apply for a seal of approval. Many consumers take this seal of approval as a sign that the company is legit and that they don’t have to be afraid of making a purchase through it.

These three simple things can greatly help in establishing your credibility online.
